Which versions of neurodrift are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of neurodrift are flagged malicious: 1.21. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate neurodrift if I installed it?

Remove neurodrift from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound network activity or persistence. Use O3 Security's dependency scanner to confirm the package and its artifacts are fully purged across your stack.

Is neurodrift part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — neurodrift is associated with the 2026-06-easyaillm campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

Can O3 Security detect neurodrift in my codebase?

Yes. O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, blocking neurodrift and packages like it before any post-install script runs.
